Our big job this year is to replace the steam boiler and air conditioning system in the Bennington County Court House. I posted this picture before but I know I got a lot more. This job is just a photo waiting to happen. So I am starting a new thread.

This is how we found the boiler this morning after the abestos removal boys got done with their work.

This is a picture of the old condensing unit. It is now gone. We will set 2-5ton Tranes tomorrow. They will be up on a brand new pad that we poured today. They old singer was on concrete blocks. Which you can not see.

Inside the you can see the round ceiling diffuser. These diffusers will be replaced with square ones with fire dampers. The returns will remain and get fire dampers. The attic machine room is right behind the wall you are looking at. We found the old tumble drum up there today that they used to pick draftees for WW II. Unfortunately I didn't get a picture of the old air handler.

There is an engineer on this job. If that is not enough to answer the question. Really I think he was trying to go for capacity control of sorts. Sometimes the court room would be packed to capacity and other times just a couple of ambulance chasers.

Besides I don't think he realized that they have 3 phase in the building.
